Communications from DIR. Quarles
are always welcome. We may differ
from him, and in this instance we dc
sos but We cOncede his honesty of pur-
pose, and his freedom from that inlol-
a which too often marks his side
of this particular debate. The evils OF
drink are conceded by good men,
whether prohibi.ionists or a~nti-prohibI-
tionists and the iteration of them by
those who uphold the former is as fair
as is the assault upon AIr. Cleveland
that he recommends in his message
free trade, pure and simple. Howcv-
er, we do not wish to renew the dis
cussion here-only one word: We
said nothing harsh or unkiud Of
preachers. We held, and still hold,
that it is impolitic and unwise for min
politics :and that the regulation, by law,
with penalties, Of the drink traffic, is a
political question. The preaching OF
temperance is another thing, and as
much q duty of the clergy as the tor
me- is a danger to their usefulness. In
these views we are sustained by the
opinions of learned and pious minis
tiers in DR.. Quaries' own church, &C
we have shown. DR.. Quarles is right
i'll ascribing much 81 the credit of the
victory OF the Observation-Disclosures 10
Mr.. Shewaiter, and in attesting 10 bis
honesty as well as ability, but there
were other things than lie persona!
liberty feature that entered into tie
ease, chief among which was that the
people do not believe that prohibition
prohibits. in The counties wheIc tits
law carries, ii does SO because tho
people are made TO believe thai ii i,
act prohibitions. IL Is our eagies, con
Viction that the Inauguration OF aG-
knowledged new prohibition measures
is practically dead in this country.
When that is realized by their friends
reasonable, conservative, practicable
measures for tie restriction of thg
liquor traffic may probably be accepted

then Tie friends nj temperance vii

Who 1t Was Who Sent the Very First In
formation to the United States.

An investigation has been made in the
City of Mexico as to who sent out the
first information Of the Sedgwick scan
dial to the American press. At the tele-
graph office the dispatches, which were
filed, were found TO have been signed by
Mr.. j. Mastella Clarke, editor of the
Two Republics, City of Mexico, and he
was thus found to be the sender of the
dispatches. An order for his arrest was
at once issued and would have been car
ried into effect if it was not for the eff
forts of Judge Sepulveda, one time judge
OF Los Angelas, Cal. This gentleman,
who is highly respected by all parties in
Mexico, had the matter hushed up, and
Minister Manning consented not to
prosecute. 1t is thought that this course
was best to pursue In view of the scan.
dial that would result In trial for GRIM
inal libel. Clarke is not by any means
without powerful friends, who say that
he. could make out very good case.
MIR. Clarke ia. an American and was
formerly resident of San Antonio, from
which city he also secured his bride,
Miss King, about year ago. Contrary
TO the Mexican idea of covering up this
scandal, we think he did a service TO his
country as we'll rs TO Mexico, and it also
goes TO show he has not forgotten his
old enterprise and the vim of American
newspaper men in giving to the world
the first news, Of all things happening.

The Fear OF the Dead in China.

The great overruling superstltions
OF China are, however, the fear OF the
dead and the belief in Feng- Shut. The
latter word means literally "wind and
water" and seems to typify both the
good and the baneful influences OF
physical phenomena. 1t is the exist
ence OF these two Superstitions which
really forms the barrier to progress in
China, because they interfere with the
reception OF foreign ideas ana the de
velopment OF industrial projects in
mining, railway making, and so forth.
Feng- Shui is Defined, says the Roman
Catholic Bishop OF Ningpo, as 1.-The
path OF the Great Dragon, who rushes
through the air Just above the houses.
spoutng blessings III showers from his
nostrls. He flies straight forward.
unless by evil chance he should strike
against some high building in which
case he turns aside at an angle, and so
the houses beyond lose their share OF
his blessing. Hence the Jealous care
Of the Chinese house builders lest any
one should build u house higher than
his neishbor, and the singular uni
formity OF domestic architecture.
The fear of the dead leads to tho
most slavish form of ancestor wor-
ship, and the three first weeks OF April
are specially devoted to the service of
the shades. At that time every one
visits the graves OF his relations with
offerings, carried on trays or in bask-
cts. The cost of these annual
services and offerings to tho dead is
stated by Miss Gordon Cumming to
be not less than thirty-two millions
sterling, all to propitiate the spirits
OF those whose graves cover the coun-
try. and who are believed to be pow
erful for evil ii neglected. The dead
are even honored by the bestowal OF
new titles il there is special reason for
distinguishing thom.-All the Year

cate upon certain lands within the grant
Of the Manitoba railroad which already
have been certified to the state and Ivy the

and why the local land officers should nj
tow settlers to lille on them, knowing them
to lie withdrawn from satteucut, rather
mystitied the secretary. He addressed
note TO Commissioner SPARKS lnStructlng
him TO inquire u he officers by telegraph
their reasons for allowing these settlements
and to withdraw all such filings ut once.
There are now before the department over
1000 applications from settlers to
Tile on granted and indemnity
lands OF railroads within the Benson ana
Worthjugtou land district, most OF which
have been rejected 10y the local officers and
appealed to the commissioner. Under the
proposed plan ot rectangular adjustment
81 grants which the commissioner adopted
year or more ago, 4 few entries were
allowed, but as the secretary diversified
this plan some months ago these entries
will have TO be relinQuIshed.
